    might as well just sit him out...it's the Kings, and we don't play until Saturday against the Mavs (can't wait to attend that game), so that would give CP3 3 full days of rest

    The Rockets should be able to win this one even with the quick turnaround and possibly not having Chris Paul.

    It would be Peak-Houston-sports to drop this game after the huge win. Don't let it happen.

    This is going to be a boring win.

    Alright every year I seem to pick a young player on the bench and insist they would help if given an opportunity, and have been wrong most of the time, Troy Daniels, KJ McDaniels, etc. I'm coming around to the thought that Mike D'antoni might know more than me, like his rotations and think he did an excellent job last night.

    That said, PLAY TROY WILLIAMS. Back to back game, vs the king's, have alot of older wings that played hard minutes last night with an 8 man rotation, don't believe fatigue is a myth, love our lineups with 5 shooters on the floor that can switch everything on D, Troy might be able to do those things and has played well when given a chance, Morey likes assets, hope this is the year I can just enjoy the game without this thought in the back of my mind.

    Do not play Paul tonight, it isn't needed. Kings don't have no where the amount of firepower that GSW have. I feel a strong dose of Harden, NeNe, and Eg will be enough.

    I think we are going to see the return of BD Nene out there tonight.

    I like how the NBA extended the season by a week to cut down on back to back and 4 games in 5 days by scheduling the Rockets on b2b at the beginning of the season. Media Conspiracy? I.D.I.O.T.? I can't tell anymore. Y'all help me out.

    Ok.. sarcasm bruh. MDA knows way more than me, however I'm not sure if he knows more than everyone and there are actually no deminishing returns for playing veteran guys big minutes every game and that expanding rotations is worthless. Again I think he's a hell of a coach and did an amazing job last night, fix yourself next time.
